This morning’s headlines made claim that a Christmas song by the Shins has overtaken Mariah Carey’s holiday anthem as the “the most played holiday song.” Although I love the Shins, their version of a Paul McCartney holiday song, and the idea of it being the #1 holiday song, I have to admit I’m a tad […]
It's hard to remember imaginary life before Math & Physics Club came along. We are forever honored to have been one of the first places they sent their demo to back in the summer of 2004. With their sweet indie-pop blend of The Smiths with The Lucksmiths, and all things Sarah Records with Matinee Records, […]
It usually isn’t in my nature to go against the John Roderick grain, but when it comes to end of year lists of favorites, I can’t help myself. I have to gather all of my favorite songs into an MP3 scrapbook for my own current and future mental sanity. Perusing the song stacks of the […]
Eux Autres has been releasing records since their first seven inch came out in 2003, and you can hear a band that grew up on 90s indie mod-pop, but they sound as fresh now as if they had just put things together in the garage for the first time earlier this year. Broken Bow is […]
{Photo taken at the 2010 Imaginary Holiday Office Party by Laura Musselman} We posted our own mix of holiday songs that kicked our imaginary holiday season off a couple weeks ago. But, since then, we’ve found ourselves up to our jingle bells with more awesome holiday songs! With the seasonality limitation of holiday music, sometimes […]
It’s that time of year again: the time of year in which we can listen to “Last Christmas” without headphones and not get chastised by our coworkers. It also gives us a time to sift through our holiday mixtapes and listen to our favorite bands get all holly jolly Christmas for us. Is there any […]
(Photo by Laura Musselman) April is trending to be one of the best months ever here at Imaginary Headquarters. Among the reasons we’re kinda losing our stuff over here: APRIL 10 and 17: Early Math & Physics Club shows at the High Dive (6p-8p)Math and Physics Club will play a couple low key shows at […]
March Madness has morphed into Awesome April and it’s kicking into high gear with a pair of Math and Physics Club shows this month. The updated four-piece (now with new drummer and sans-strings), will play a couple low key shows at the High Dive on April 10 (this Saturday) and April 17 to test drive […]
Holy bajeezus! It's the week for popfest announcements! The lovely folks over at Indietracks have put out their innitial lineup for their amazing train station festival in Derbyshire, UK for July 24th-26th. They're advertising five stages, free steam train rides, and indie pop discos. This lineup hurts my head, and last night, all I could […]
The Eux Autres duo have been busy on their Macs to give us a super cute (and dare I say touching) video for "Anne Boleyn" from their 2007 album, Cold City. The band’s guitarist, Nicholas Larimer, used vintage-y stop-motion animation on the video (he directed/animated). Has it been too long since I've seen The Year […]
